Chapter 510 - It Makes My Heart Flutter

Zhao Ming pursed her lips seeing how her single appearance has caused such disturbance. But she didn\'t feel bad at all.

After all, they were blackmailing him emotionally and was pressuring him to take back his decision to punish those two bitches.

A frown appeared on her forehead hearing that old man\'s words. How dare he talk to the Emperor like this?

Shouldn\'t the people in ancient times quiver in fear in front of the Emperor? Then how could he speak like this?

" Hah. Minister Yu Shao is really a loyal man. You\'re more loyal to the Emperor of L country rather than your own Emperor." She clicked her tongue as she made her way towards Ji Cheng ignoring others\' stunned gazes.

They were staring at her so intensely that their eyes might bulge out if they continued to stare at her.

Ji Cheng was surprised as well when she walked to him despite their gazes and sat on the chair beside him.

She didn\'t even flinch for a moment and just smiled at him brightly.

*Wink* he was pleasantly surprised when she secretly winked at him. He coughed lightly to suppress the urge to smile at her playful actions.

" What... I am just worried that Consort?Xiao Li\'s father might get agitated if he found out what happened to Consort Xiao Li. This might strain the relationship between the two countries. I didn\'t mean anything else."

Zhao Ming raised her brows, " Really? That\'s good then. But even if you want to talk to His Majesty, you need to wait for some time. You can talk to him to your heart content but after he was done with his breakfast."

" Or you want his majesty to work empty stomach?"

She wasn\'t interested in arguing with him on this matter, so she just tried to end this conversation here.

The man pursed his lips and understood why Empress Dowager was so angry while talking about her.

He never thought that the girl who used to be elegant and obedient could become so feisty and sharp-tongued.

" Empress Zhao Ming, this matter is very important. As a woman, it\'s not appropriate for you to sit in this meeting." He said through his gritted teeth.

Zhao Ming was dumbfounded hearing his words. When he couldn\'t find anything to kick her out, he used this petty trick?

Good. Very good.

She snickered and was about to retort him when she heard an icy cold voice from the side.

" Who are you to order the Empress to go away?"

Everyone in the room was stunned by the way Ji Cheng spoke for Zhao Ming.

" His Majesty, I was just trying to talk to you but her Majesty…." The man\'s voice lowered Ji Cheng\'s cold voice.

He tried to make excuses but before he could say anything further, his words were interrupted by him.

" Enough. Minister Yu, I think it\'s time for you to retire now. You have worked for the court for so long. Now you have become so old that you couldn\'t even think through before speaking. "

" You can clear the work of your post by the end of this week. Now all of you can go. I don\'t want to hear anything about this topic anymore. So please leave."

Ji Cheng looked at everyone indifferently. He was as calm as always.

The man was shocked by hearing his words. He came to help Wen Xu and Xiao Li to get their position back but in the end, he was also removed from his position.

" His Majesty...how can you do that to me? I...I didn\'t even do anything wrong then how can you punish me?" He wanted to swear at Zhao Ming but controlled the consequences of his actions.

Fortunately, he remembered what happened to the man who used to work at Master Wen Ru\'s shop. He has heard that the man had insulted the Empress and Ji Cheng brought him back to torture him.

He didn\'t kill that man, instead, he cut off his tongue from which he has disrespected Zhao Ming. Not only that, but he was also sent to the confinement room where there is not a single ray of light and he wasn\'t given to eat anything and drink for days and in the end, he died because of hunger.

He has heard about this incident but he didn\'t believe that Ji Cheng would torture someone like this for a woman. Because until now, he has given importance to his moral ethics.

And other than on wars, he has never used violence but for this woman, he has punished someone so ruthlessly.

….

" Majesty..you need to think again. You can\'t just remove anyone from.." the other man tried to help Minister Yu but stopped talking when he saw Ji Cheng\'s deathly glare.

" Get out.!"

Everyone shut up and glances at each other. They silently stood up and left the room while dragging Minster Yu with them because they were worried that he might say something inappropriate in spite of anger.

…..

Zhao Ming pursed her lips and felt a little guilty seeing that the man was removed from his position because of her.

Ji Cheng turned to her and saw her expressions.

" It\'s not because of you. So don\'t think too much about it. "

He took her smooth hands in his hands and rubbed them realizing how cold they are. Even in this hot weather, her hands were so cold.

Zhao Ming smiled and didn\'t think about those insignificant people. After all, she wasn\'t the one who removed him from his position. If Ji Cheng has done something, then he must have had his reasons.

" You..are you fine now? You feel okay?" He asked worriedly wondering if she still needed some alone time.

She smiled and nodded.

" I am feeling better. Thank you so much for being understanding. I know that I have hurt you so much in these past few days but I needed some time to calm down."

Ji Cheng smiled hearing her words.

" You don\'t need to thank me for this. I am your husband and I only did what I should do. If I won\'t respect your decision then who will? Being husband and wife doesn\'t mean that we have to stick to each other all the time."

" I just gave you some space. It was nothing."

Zhao Ming smiled hearing his words.

" Don\'t say such words." She dramatically shook her head.

Ji Cheng was surprised and before he could say anything, she said, " It makes my heart flutter."

"-_-"

His ears turned red upon hearing her outspoken words. He has to agree that her words are too direct compared to her past self.
